How many electrons dose Sulfur need to gain in order to have the same electron configuration as Argon?
Sulfur needs to gain 2 electrons to have the electon configuration of Argon
How many electrons does group 6A need to gain to become a noble gas?
They should gain 2 electrons to attain noble gas electronic configuration. (it doesn't become a noble gas as the number of protons are not same)
How many electrons does selenium need to lose or gain to be stable?
Selenium needs to gain two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. By gaining two electrons, selenium will have a complete outer energy level (valence shell), which is the most stable configuration for an atom.
How many electrons will barium need to gain or lose to make 8?
Barium loses 2 as it is in group 2 and it's easier to lose two than to gain more than this.
How many electrons does oxygen need to reach an octet?
Oxygen needs to gain 2 electrons to reach an octet, as it has 6 valence electrons in its outer shell and requires a total of 8 electrons to have a stable octet configuration.
How many electrons does phosphorus have to gain in order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration?
Phosphorus has to gain a total of 3 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration. You can find this for any non-metal because the last digit of its group number is the number of valence electrons it has. For example Phosphorus has 5 and Sulfur has 6. In order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration, you must have 8 valence electrons, so phosphorus must gain 3.
How many valence electrons does phosphorus need?
Phosphorus has 5 valence electrons and it needs 3 more electrons to complete its octet and achieve stability.
How many electrons must be gained for phosphorus to have a stable electron configuration?
Its outer shell needs 3 more electrons (because 2+3=5) you need 8 in order for the outer shell to become stable being that there is 5 on the outer shell already what plus 5 gives you 8 3 of course so that why you add 3.
Phosphorus will electrons to complete its octet changing it into a(n) .?
Phosphorus need 3 electrons to complete its octet.
How many atoms does a phoshorus atom need to attain a noble gas configuration?
Phosphorus should gain 3 electrons and form P3- ion to attain a noble gas configuration
In a reaction how many valence electrons will probably gain two electrons or share two covalent bonds?
In a reaction u need two valence electrons to gain or share two valence electrons.
How many electrons dose Sulfur need to gain in order to have the same electron configuration as Argon?
Sulfur needs to gain 2 electrons to have the electon configuration of Argon
Do non-metal atoms need to gain electrons or loose them?
They need to gain them.
What does a sulfur atom need to do to become an ion?
It needs to lose, or gain, electrons.
What is the chemical symbol for phosphorus pentachloride?
the pent in pentachloride refers to the chlorine in the molecule, therefore the molecular formula of the stated cemical is PCl5...although I'm not sure if this can exist because these two must form covalently (both need to gain electrons to gain full valence shell)
How many electrons does calcium need to get eight valence electrons?
Calcium has two valence electrons in its outer shell. To achieve a stable octet configuration of eight valence electrons, it needs to lose these two electrons rather than gain any. Therefore, calcium does not need to gain any electrons; instead, it will typically lose two to achieve stability.
How many electrons does group 6A need to gain to become a noble gas?
They should gain 2 electrons to attain noble gas electronic configuration. (it doesn't become a noble gas as the number of protons are not same)
